Overview
Request 571690 superseded
- Do not condition sources they all need to be present in src rpm
- Add conditionals for python2 and python3
- Use full url for github downloads instead of handmade tarball
- Use make_install macro
- Apply py3 enablement patches everywhere, no effect on py2 code
- Drop python3 split spec file as it is not needed and use only
python3
* As there are no dependent packages on python-ibus directly
people should repoint their scripts to the python3 variant
* Makefiles do not allow building both at once so stick only
with py3 as we are disabling python2 slowly anyway
- Drop 12.2 KDE icons as the codestreams are long out of support
- Drop the kde4 icons too as we are plasma5 based now and enable
appindicator integration for plasma5 conditionaly under KDE

Please don't drop python3-ibus, ibus-table need it. We should package python3-ibus and python-ibus together.
There is only python3-ibus, no python-ibus, we plan to drop python2 for leap15 in base system and ibus is quite core
Each of them can't be dropped as well. ibus-sunpinyin still work on python2 and python-ibus. ibus-sunpinyin is still useful for Chinese users. I think we should wait upstream of sunpinyin migrate it to python3.
Not really a choice. Either someone from SUSE or community has to migrate it to python3 as it is on SLE too maybe the desktop team could be of help. @yfjiang any chance you could check this up?
Thanks @scarabeus_iv, @hillwood :-)
@hillwood, am I right ibus-sunpinyin is the only thing being concerned for python compatibility issue for Chinese input? How about those popular engines like, as far as I can name, ibus-libpinyin and ibus-googlepinyin. Do you have some ideas if they work smoothly with python3 engine?
ibus-pinyin, ibus-sunpinyin, ibus-googlepinyin and libgooglepinyin are all written with python2, we need migrate all of them to python3. ibus-libpinyin have been migrated to python3, so these is no problem form ibus-libpinyin.
It seem that there would be just a bit changes for the work about migrating ibus-pinyin to python3, I will try it in free time.
Of course, We can drop python2 if they work smoothly with python3 engine.
@scarabeus_iv, @hillwood, I spent some time today, it seems sunpinyin's dependency on python-ibus are mostly on the preference setup window. This patch should just work:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:yfjiang:branches:M17N/ibus-sunpinyin
While I am not an expert in ibus area, feel free to improve :-)
FYI - I've submitted to replace sunpinyin's dependency:
